Seems to me, I saw something on one of the local channels (*gasp*) that showed an animal rescue group (or several) with permission to go into Iraq and Afghanistan and bring home the stray pets, with appropriate paperwork, shots, spaying, etc.
They find homes for the critters before the animals are ever allowed to leave the country. I’d take one in a heartbeat if I could recall the news item.
It seems it was an awesome job, getting the permission to go into other countries and rescue animals, but with lots of donations (carriers, cages, meds, medical services, food and other items) “we” won the right to rescue.
If anyone knows about this effort, I’d appreciate a heads up.

Hi Monkey Face, I have contributed to this organization for about a year now. I don't think it's the one you're referring to, but you might want to take a look at them. Sorry for the non-live link.....sometimes I can do it properly and sometimes not. http://www.nowzad.com/
If you hear anything, please ping me.
